Swim
Comments: Probably swam an extra 200 yds because of my inability to sight correctly. Would get into a rhythm and then notice that there was no one around me. I'd look up and realize that I was at least 20 yds off course. Felt good about the physical aspects of the swim though. What would you do differently?: Practice sighting! If I would look up more often I might have dropped two to three minutes off of my overall time. Transition 1
Comments: Didn't have chance to practice wetsuit removal, so it was just do what I could to get it off. Then I wasn't too sure what to do with it once it was off. What would you do differently?: Get the wetsuit earlier and practice T1 a lot! Bike
Comments: Had plenty of opportunities to practice this course as my house is actually on it. Was concerned about being called for drafting as I kept same pace with two other riders and would often change places What would you do differently?: Probably not ride so hard. Think I overdid it and paid for it on the run. Transition 2
Comments: Was pretty well smoked by this time and it showed. I took too long to put the shoes on and get going. What would you do differently?: Slow down on the bike more towards the end and catch my breath. Run
Comments: Wanted a sub 8 minute mile. But just couldn't find the energy. My legs were totally spent by the finish What would you do differently?: Get my injuries worked through early on and run more for training. Post race
Warm down: A bottle of water and a twenty minute stand in line for massage What limited your ability to perform faster: injuries. I need to be able to run faster Event comments: Overall very good race. Great post race activities and food. Would help to have more pre-race info/meetings and possibly a USAT officials brief.
